[PATCH] PCIe: AER: during disable, check subordinate before walking

From: Alex Chiang
Date: Thu Mar 05 2009 - 21:28:51 EST


Commit 47a8b0cc (Enable PCIe AER only after checking firmware
support) wants to walk the PCI bus in the remove path to disable
AER, and calls pci_walk_bus for downstream bridges.

Unfortunately, in the remove path, we remove devices and bridges
in a depth-first manner, starting with the furthest downstream
bridge and working our way backwards.

The furthest downstream bridges will not have a dev->subordinate,
and we hit a NULL deref in pci_walk_bus.

Check for dev->subordinate first before attempting to walk the
PCI hierarchy below us.
